      I saw a programme many years ago that looked at weird stuff in nature and they looked at animals on substances, let's jus say! This particular episode in question opened up with numerous cats in a garden with catnip and they were completely off their teets on the stuff! Some were rolling round, there was lots of meowing, some purring and some were even chasing imaginary mice! It was crazy, I jus wish I could remember the name of that programme, though... That same episode showed a few things that Casual Geographic looked at when he covered the subject, such as the legless bees and the monkey being stoned literally out of his tree thanks to a centipede!

    I have 2 house panthers; a Tuxedo Ragdoll and a Mini Maine Coon, and they both love catnip.
    Recently I was delighted to find some high - grade catnip that is literal top buds on the stalk and it's much better than the usual homogenized powder mixed with lots of lumber ( smaller branches cut up to extend the bunk ) that most pet stores like to sell us.
    I have a short story to tell about catnip which may inspire some of you reading this:
    A guy took some catnip plants and grew them indoors, but he introduced a blacklight which he would turn on briefly, the 'On ' time getting gradually longer as time went on ( forgive me, I don't know the specifics but it was a matter of a few seconds increase every time as I understand it )
    WELL, this guy had his first harvest, and decided to bring some of his catnip over to a buddy's place ( who owned a cat ) - but he never made it there because as he was walking to his friend's house, about 30 cats had started following him due to the smell of the potent catnip.
    He had to run back home and hope all the cats would leave him alone.

    During the Summer months I am lucky to have catnip growing wildly in my yard. This fresh catnip (which gives off it's very unique potent smell once picked or rubbed) has driven every cat 🐈I know into a pleasurable high for a short time! It's hilarious especially when my three cats start swatting at each other in fun 😂 There is a world of difference between the dry and the freshly picked! Once I pick the fresh it's like my cats turn into flying squirrels coming at me because the smell drives them nuts!

    My mum had some large, many-years-old catnip bushes growing in the garden which were very beautiful, nice smelling and aesthetic plants whoses purple flowers attracted hoardes of butterflies. The farm cats also loved to lounge right in the center of these bushes, lying on their backs and completely zoned out in the catnip scent under the Summer sun, occassionally taking tiny nibbles of the leaves whilst very slowly pawing at the air as butterflies went past. These farm cats were normally quite serious working animals but amongst those catnip bushes, they turned into a pair of very chilled out stoned hippy cats at peace with nature and the world around them.
    Warm memories of a past time.

    A few years back, I send catnip via snail mail to a friend with a birthday card for his cat. When they got home from work, they dropped the mail on the counter. Their cat puled the envelope to the ground and was rolling on the envelope and meowing. They didn't open it at first, just put it back on the counter. The cat kept knocking the envelope to the ground, rolling on it with a lamenting meow. My friends got impatient scolding the cat - They eventually opened the envelope to discover a birthday card for the cat and a small sachet of catnip. Priceless.

    My parents, who were not big cat people, had catnip growing in their backyard and would complain how many cats were in the garden....🤣🤣🤦‍♀🤦‍♀ After a while my mom grew fond of watching them reacting to the catnip plant and told my dad to keep it. They had a beautiful English garden and didn't realize that catnip is part of the mint family and that they had gotten a catnip plant. My spouse found what we thought was a mint plant in our backyard, turns out it's a catnip plant. We sometimes go and get fresh catnip for our indoor cats. It explains why our next door neighbor's cat, Bob, loves to hang out in our backyard when he sneaks out of the house.

    One of my cats rolled around in the stuff, the other one just ate it. Both got super sensitive to touch and start to fight halfheartedly with each other.
    Their first contact with it was accidental at night, when they got into the food cupboard, and destroyed the newly bought package. I had the white carpet covered in 50 gram catnip when I got downstairs in the morning, and two very stoned cats. They did not touch the ‘nip for quite a while after this.

    One day one of my cats just sat on the couch and wouldn't move for hours. This lasted for several days. I finally figured out he had gotten into a bag of catnip that was in a cupboard and had been snacking on it all day for days. He was a very stressy cat (a rescue) and I think it eased him. I put the catnip in a higher cupboard and doled it out in a more reasonable dosage. His passions were food and catnip.

      I had a cat who once got into the bag of catnip and was laying in the hall just looking at the wall. We had to start putting it in more secure location. She usually hated being picked up, but that day she was like a ragdoll and was like: "Okay, you move me now." 🤣🤣 We kept checking on her until she was out of her daze, "Collette, are you still alive? Do you want food and water?" I miss that goofy cat.

I guess it had a calming affect on him. He goes crazy though when I'm taking my herb supplements, and tries to get them from me. He loves peppermint more than anything. And his absolute favorite place to lay is in the dirty laundry on things that smell like mildew. I'll put the laundry up, and he'll intentionally knock it over again, and pulls out dish towels and his favorite of all...a dirty wash cloth. He acts with it like other cats do with catnip.🤷🏼‍♀️

    It's thought that the reason the gene that makes cats sensitive to catnip and catmint, is that the oils in those plants that evolved to ward off pests also work on the parasites that affect cats, stuff like fleas and ticks. This means that over time, cats that responded to the catnip and mint by rolling in it were less likely to suffer from infestations, so the gene got passed down.

    The first cat that I owned that responded to catnip, really responded. I think she would have OD'd if she'd gotten into that much! Half a tsp had her all but passed out on the floor, eyes completely dilated, looking as if she'd single-handedly just smoked 6 whole doobies of "the good stuff"!

    I had a Shih Tzu (small dog) who would go crazy on catnip. She’d run around like crazy and wear herself totally out. She was small and liked small, soft toys; so cat toys. Found a cute soft cat and she loved it, started racing around the house like crazy. Went back to the package and saw it had catnip in it. Didn’t know it also affected dogs!

    We had a feral "barn cat" (male) that I tried to tame. I got it so I could pet its head, but trying to touch any other part of its body caused it to hiss, swat at me and run away. I always wore work gloves when interacting with that cat. I bought some catnip labeled "The Good Stuff, Dude" and put it out for the cat in the hopes it would make him more friendly. To my utter surprise, the cat had no reaction to the stuff at all. As strange as it seems, horses are more closely related to cats than either are to humans (they are both Laurasiatherians) and so I tried the catnip on my horse and the one next to him. They didn't go nuts like some cats do, but they were definitely interested.

      @@michixinqq not always, if catnip is some form of psychotropic for cats then it is different. Fresh picked herbs will always taste fresher, but commercial ones typically have been genetically enhanced to be bigger, last longer, and be stronger. I grow my own tobacco but smoking the stuff i grow is completely different to smoking store bought tobacco, the one you buy in a store is stronger and smoother because of all the stuff the put in it.
